Henrik Gjesdal (born 19 July 1993) is a Norwegian professional footballer and chess player who plays for Moss, as a centre back.[2]
Career
In April 2013 he signed his first contract with Brann, due after the 2013 season, after 7 years as a youth player. Gjesdal became a first team regular due to injuries on fellow centre backs Markus Jonsson and Simen Wangberg, and was called up to the national under-21 team. He debuted on 5 June as a substitute in a friendly match against Finland. On 3 October 2013 he signed a contract keeping him with Brann until the end of the 2015 season.[3] Before the last game of the 2013 season against Tromsø, he was named Young Player of the Year by the supporters.[4] Despite this, on 12 March 2014 it was announced that Gjesdal would leave on a four-month-long loan to 1. divisjon club Nest-Sotra.[5]
In the summer 2014 Gjesdal signed a 2+1⁄2-year contract with Tromsø.
